Learn the Systems Behind Flight
Our courses, design work and labs bring the science of flight and space into focus. Study aerodynamics, propulsion, structures and flight systems as you learn how complex systems work together.
Undergraduate Program
Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering
Build the knowledge to design aircraft and spacecraft through courses in aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, flight mechanics and more. Your studies culminate in a senior design capstone, where you work with a team to develop an aircraft or spacecraft concept.
Graduate Program
Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering
Take your technical interests further through advanced coursework and a research-focused thesis project. Work closely with faculty as you deepen your expertise, ask more complex questions and prepare for specialized work in industry or further study.
Choose the Direction That Fits You
Choose a concentration that matches the systems you want to understand, or continue into graduate study through the blended program. Each path gives you room to shape what comes next.
Aeronautics Concentration
Focus on the systems that keep aircraft in the air. Study aerodynamics, flight performance, propulsion, dynamics and control, wind-tunnel testing and aircraft design.
Astronautics Concentration
Focus on the systems that operate beyond Earth. Study orbital mechanics, space environments, spacecraft propulsion, attitude dynamics and control, power, communications and design.
Blended BS + MS Program
The blended program lets qualified Aerospace Engineering students begin graduate study while completing their bachelor’s degree. It offers a direct path to deeper study and a master’s degree.
Where Engineering Happens
Our department’s labs give you room to move beyond equations. Test aerodynamic performance in the Low Speed Wind Tunnel, work with propulsion systems, analyze composite structures and use space-environment facilities to test components. These spaces put your design decisions in front of real data.
